to my beloved

When we met, you caught me by surprise. Everyone told me love would come when I least expected it, but I didn't believe them. I had given up. I had come to terms that I would never find the right guy. And, yet, here we are.

It's hard to believe it's been 20 years. What's harder to believe is that we made it through the worst of those years. Sometimes I wondered and I'm not even sure how it happened, but I am so thankful that we survived.

Looking back I realize now that we've really grown up together. We've learned how to live with each other. We've learned how to laugh with each other. We've learned how to talk through disagreements and when to leave it alone. We've toughed it out and fought tooth and nail for the place we have reached in our life and our marriage. It has made us stronger and it has made us love each other better.

Happy Anniversary, baby. I love you and I believe you when you say the best is yet to come!!!
